Talk Time with Hope

Hey hey what do you say? The time has come for this podcast to end BUT please know that you can go over to Real Talk with Hope and keep on listening to me. SO, this is not the end of hearing my voice and listening in to all that I want to share about my life and things going on in life.

Thank you for sticking with me through the years and it is my hope that you will do the same with the release of my new one.

Change is good and it's time for some change. BUT that said, remember that this change is not having me go anywhere other than with a new podcast that will still be here on Spotify on wherever you get your podcasts. 🙃😉

Truly, THANK Y'ALL for being such great supporters. See you on the flip side...which hopefully will be on Real Talk with Hope.

Be well. Stay well. God bless. 💓🌻💓

As y'all know I talk about ALL kinds of topics on this podcast and one of those things -- which really is hard to ignore for me -- is what's going on our country, more specifically with what the current POTUS (wanna be diKtator) and his administration is doing. I can't ignore it because if I don't vent, I'll probably need a few therapists and would over due it at the gym. So, venting on my podcast it is. Plus, when I talk (vent) about this stuff others listening will maybe not feel so alone or wonder if they are going crazy. I mean, we may still feel that with how things are going but at least we can feel it together. lol

Oh, World Ovarian Cancer Day was May 8th and so think about checking out Teal Time with Hope and giving me a listen on that podcast as #awarenesssaveslives 🩵

Lastly, if you are a mother (of fur babies or other pets counts too) or are blessed to still have your mother around I hope you have a beautiful Mother's Day! 💐

Thanks as always for listening. I appreciate it more than you could possibly know. Be well. Stay well. God bless. 🌻

Happy Easter Weekend, for those that celebrate it! #heisrisen

Though I was going to talk ALL things politics I refrained. Mostly because I wanted to talk about some of the things that I am doing with regards to self-improvement. I'm more on a journey of learning more about myself and finding ways that help me do better with finding more inner peace, knowing more about my self-worth, learning to not get attached to people and things, as well as learning how to let go of things that are not good for my overall wellbeing. I want to be a better version of myself tomorrow than I am today. I don't want to be better than anyone JUST better than who I was yesterday. I'm a work in progress, fosho!

Additionally, the ways I have been doing this is by listening to some YouTube channels touching on the famous Carl Jung and also things that have to do with Buddhist philosophy way of thinking. It's not been long since I started listening to these things but I do already feel it's benefited me. I find myself being less anxious. I find myself being at more peace. Again, it's not been long but its presence exists and I like it!

The talking about a recent fall out I have had with a friend ties into it all too. I share not just to let you know what's new with me but because maybe you find yourself wanting the same. Finding ways to be calmer and have more peace as well as learning how to not be so reactionary (which I feel can be hard but at the same time achievable) as this is definitely something I would be better at.

Lastly, did a little talking about what continues to go on with trump and his administration. As passionate as I can be about speaking up and being a voice for the injustices in the world and the insanity of what's going on in this country I want to do better with how much I let it affect me and how to learn to do better with speaking with passion but not with a lot of anger. I know that's hard with trump, musk, and the clown show going on in the white house. But I am and will try to find a way where I can keep speaking out in a less angry type way. Never will I stop speaking out against wrong, but I will do so in a way that it doesn't mess with my Zen. 😉

Oh and yeah, Denver weekend for me. Yay!!!💓

Be well. Stay well. Thanks as always for giving me a listen, it means a lot! God bless! 🌻

***Stuff came up so will just do an episode on Friday!***

Hey y'all! Not about the politics today -- I know surprise! But don't you worry I'll be doing a SPECIAL EDITION that will be all things politics ... SOON -- keep an eye out this Sunday OR Monday! 😉

Today it's something that I didn't necessarily going to talk much on to. But apparently I needed to get it out. lol

I really mean it with regards to take care of your teeth. Make dental appointments with teeth cleaning and just overall keep those appointments and don't ignore it like I did for many years. 👎🏽

In addition, I am talking about the autoimmune disorder that has affected my skin, scalp, and mouth that was caused by my time I was while in the Army. Which sucks! #bigtime

I know that I did speak about it before; however, I wanted to talk about it again due to the mouth has been really bothering me more lately. In fact, I had a biopsy on Tuesday. Not a fun thing, let me tell you! But it had to be done because they periodontists wants to make sure that what I have been dealing it truly what they say it or is it another type of autoimmune disorder. THANKFULLY he said he can see it's NOT cancer. Hallelujah! 🙌🏽

***I miss my mom! 😢***

ALWAYS remember that there's NOTHING you can't do! Look at me ... far from perfect and has faced many obstacles YET I am still standing. I'm not better than anyone! I am not superwoman! I do not have any super power other than having the mindset of moving forward no matter what life throws my way! If I can keep moving forward YOU CAN TOO! 💪🏽 And also, remember YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Thank you as always for giving me a listen! If you like what you hear please consider giving this podcast a 5 star review and feel free to leave a comment. 🥰

Be well. Stay well. God bless! 🌻

***Apologizes if a one point you can hear some noise in the background -- had my window open due to the nice weather we have been having. Also, I noticed that there's not THAT much static in this one. Yay!😁***

Now, when I say this is doozy of an episode I'm not exaggerating! I have a lot to talk about and I get quite passionate about the hate that continues to go against those that are transgender and how the military, under trump and his adminstration, is forcing those that are transgender to get out. It's truly unbelievable how BACKWARDS are country is going. We used to be a country that was the example or a pillar of democracy and freedoms and now NOT SO MUCH!

So, yes, buckle up as I get into it with how this country is being ran which does not just include trump but also that wanna be leader of America who is musk! I don't capitalize their names on purpose. It's my little way of not respecting them and any the minions that cower down to our so called POTUS!

But please keep in mind, as you will hear in the episode, as frustrated and upset and anger with how things are going I am NOT losing hope. Sure, some days are harder than others BUT HOPE and FAITH and OPTIMISM do and will prevail. And prayer as we need to keep them going.

Thanks as always for giving me a listen and as long as I still have even just one person, for now, I'll keep this podcast going. I don't care to make EVERYTHING about politics but the state of country right now is not something I can ignore so there will most likely be more things about politics in future episodes -- maybe I need to start a channel on YouTube as we need more people talking about the insanity going on so others can see that they are not alone with thinking that we are in the upside down. But for now, I have this podcast to vent on. 😉

Y'all be well. Stay well & stay safe! God bless. 🌻❤️

This is a really good article about science and sex redefined:

Remember: Knowledge is power and that critical thinking is just good to have. 😉🫶

**Still got some static in the recording and I thought I had solved that problem. Truly not happy about that.***

I'm back from Southern California. Had a great time! Even went over to Hollywood boulevard. Wat! Wat! Speak a bit about that in this episode. HOWEVER, I really get into what the cra cra is going on in our country. Buckle up, y'all!

Oh, should go back to episodes uploading on Fridays. 😁

Be well. Stay well. God bless. 🌻❤️🌻

**I changed computers yet there is still static throughout the recording. It could be my mic or amplifier so may have to get those replaced. I appreciate your understand with said static&&

Did y'all know that February is a rockin month? You did not know that? Well, let me tell you .... February is a ROCKIN month! Why? Because of Valentines Day? Uhhhh no, so not because of that. Nothing against that day, of course. It's just not about that. Is it about Black History Month? No; however, it is a great month that I pray the wicked bleep in Merica won't try to get rid of. But we don't know at this point. But I digress, for now.

If you haven't guessed it yet, February is a rockin month because, well, hey, because it's my birthday month. What???? Yes!!!! And though I don't make a "big deal" about my birthday I am bringing it up because maybe I feel like with current issues going on in this country we all should be doing what we can to focus on happier things. Plus, I'm only turning 25! 🤣

I will be getting into all the insane things going on with the man that sits in the white house but please, as I state in the recording, I keep hope alive! I will never allow the chaos and absurdity of it all get me to the point of losing that hope. Please try to do the same! Part of that is not being glued to the news 24/7. #facts

Remember: Knowledge is power. ❤️

Be well. Stay well. God bless. 🌻

I actually recorded this last night but after doing a lot of editing I ended up calling it a night. I was dog tired as the saying goes.

Talking about the insane fires that ravished parts of southern California recently. It's disgusting to see how people are practically heartless simply because of their opinions of democrats and those who are very wealthy living in California. However, hope carries on and there's been a lot of good shining through despite the tragedy. That gives me hope for humanity or that we are not getting closer to it being gone.

I also talk about something I'm struggling with and it has to do with pursing a master's in a field I am not even in and is it worth the anxiety and stress to go three or more years when it won't really have any true benefit, career wise. Or should I stick to my passion in writing and get truly serious with it, finally! I feel I have my answer; however, I do appreciate any feedback you all may have. 🫶🏽

Lastly, I talk about the incoming POTUS and all the oligarchy folks he has next to him. We are living in perilous times my friends. Not saying these are the end days, and there are people of many religions say we are, but things are cra to the cra here in the US of A. Lord, be with us.

Thanks, as always for giving me a listen. It means the world to me. Coming on here and talking about this or that is almost like therapy.

Like and subscribe.... who knows I may actually keep this podcast going. Only time will tell. 😉

Be well. Stay well. God bless. 🌻

Wow! What a year this has been! But WE MADE IT! I know that is not the case for many people around the world BUT I am trying to be positive and though people die every day and horrible things happen to where people aren't going to see 2025, I do believe it's important to be grateful for all we do have and to be thankful that we are still here as we can all do good in this world to hopefully help make the world a better place. That's how I try to see it. Trust me it is easy to get sad with death and being in the world of ovarian cancer advocacy... it's hard when you hear of another woman dying to the insidious disease. YET God gets me through it. Because if we are still breathing... there's still a reason!

I hope you all had a great new year celebration and I HOPE y'all will have an amazing new year! I'm praying, hoping and believing the same for me and mine.

I have some news to share so make sure you jump in and give me a listen. It's good while maybe not something great as it means this podcast will be coming to a close in 2025 -- Just not sure when exactly.

It's been a great ride! No doubt!

Thanks for your support, always! Means more than I can say. But this is not the last episode so don't be sad. 🫶🏽

God bless. Be well. Stay well. 🌻

I am enjoying my volunteer time at the USO (please click on the link to learn more about the organization). I speak of it a little as it's why I didn't post an episode yesterday. 🫡

I wanted to talk about some of the latest things going on righ now. Though there is SO MUCH going I stuck with the United Health Care CEO murder and the killer and the insanity of because it is attractive he is somehow looked at in a nice way despite MURDERING someone. 🤦🏽‍♀️Unbuckingfelievable! (swearing by way of dyslexia is now I roll l😉)

I had to bring up those that trump has picked to be on his administration, and never have I felt like I am on crazy pills like I do right now. Holy cow! Not to mention how many billionaires (yes with a B!) that are set to be on his administration too. Just wow! Just not even kidding when I say I am scared for the next four years under president musk and vp trump. Yes, that's what it seems is going on. Elon Musk looking to be running things and not trump.

Lord be with us! Please. 🙏🏽

But hey I do try to get back to being positive. So had to end it on wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas. Happy Hannukah . If you don't celebrate either of those please just continue to be well... and stay well.

God bless! 🌻

As, always, thank you for giving me a listen. It means so much! 💓
